Catacomb Cards cover sketch I drew for unpublished Judges Guild product. As I remember it, to be 3.5" square cards, printed both sides, numbered 1-100 for use in then-commonly-available Instamatic plastic photo album pages that held 6 cards per page for 7x10.5" dungeon level area. When rolling 4 sided dice for which side up & 1-100 for each card (or just drawing shuffled cards) would have over 4 quadrillion "stock" map combinations (more with variant assumptions).

No Name City map name for what became City State of the Invincible Overlord in 1976 on blueprint paper. The original map was drawn on a large 34x44" plastic drafting stock in colored pencils by Bob Bledsaw. Offset reproduction in one color could not hold many of the colors (i.e. blue would disappear completely) so we were trying different reproduction options like blue lines and black lines before Bob finally redrew the whole map free hand overnight.
